Nap strike

I do believe today is going to be a no-nap day. We've been trying the nap for an hour now. I did most of the stuff I meant to do during nap (bring out garbage, bring in cat litter, laundry) and could realistically take her out and get the rest done. And enjoy an early bedtime, which would be easier for Jen since I am supposed to go out with my coworkers. But argh! I like the kid to have a nap. She is a happier child with a nap.

AND I was stupid enough to tell her she could only watch the video we checked out of the library ("Dora Saves the Mermaids," if you must know) if she took a good nap. Umm, which was what I was planning to have her do while I made a nice dinner tonight. Dang it! Now I have to take that option off the table.

She is in there singing Rudolph at the top of her lungs. I think I will chill a little longer and then put an end to this madness.
